Run `md2pdf.sh input.md out/name.pdf` (script is in this skill's directory), then send the PDF with send_file and a one-sentence caption.
Defaults live in `md2pdf.yaml` next to the script; a document's own YAML header overrides them. Keep the fonts set: without them pandoc's Typst template fails.
Markdown tables are fine in the PDF, and a title/date YAML header gives a title block.
## Phone-screen variant
For a PDF read on a phone: prepend this YAML header to a copy of the markdown and run md2pdf.sh on the copy; name the output `<slug>-phone.pdf`.
